We (family of 3) will be moving to Sheridan to start a new position with UW. We are moving from the South and have no experience driving/dealing in winter conditions. We wish to travel in December and will be flying from Billings MT. Is there any public transportation from Sheridan to Billings airport. Any replies will be appreciated. Thanks

Thank you for the links. I appreciate it. I do have a car, which I will ship. My concern is I've never driven in winter conditions before (snow/sleet etc), which is why we wish to use public transportation. I guess we'll become experts once we start driving there during the course of time.

There is Jefferson Line which runs two buses a day. The Depot is at the North End of town. It's the Red Eagle, Shell Station at 2490 N. Main. 307-674-6188. Give them a call for the schedules. Sheridan pickup is strange time, like 3:30am or something like that. Don't know where they depot in Billings.

I would only add this: unless the weather is bad I-90 which links Sheridan and Billings is kept up in pretty good condition. If you drive at the speed of traffic, 65-75 depending on road conditions you should be fine. You should know 2-3 days in advance if a weather front is on its way or not. I hope you will find Sheridan to your liking, for Wyoming we have relativly mild weather.

Thank you all the information. We are excited to be in Sheridan. I'll be officially employed with UW but will be teaching and doing research at Sheridan college. We hope to meet new people and make friends in Sheridan!

I think you will really love it in Sheridan. There is so much to do that it is unbelievable, as long as you are into outdoor activities.

Take a look at the Sheridan Press and you'll find a list of activities going on in town. You will find that there is way too much to enjoy all of it. There is literally something going on every day and night. For instance. The high school choir is only about 30 kids. But they are so good that when they put on a sing at the highschool (500 seats) that the place is standing room only.

The Fairgrounds are right in town, up 5th street. There is most always something going on there every day.

We have a theater in town. Yes, several screens but that's not the one I'm talking about. We have a theater with a stage and stand up acting. Book readings, cowboy poetry, comedy, everything you can imagine.

If you have a dog, there is a dog park in town.

Like I say, I think you'll love it here. If you have any questions, just ask away. There are 3 or 4 regulars on here that live in Sheridan.

We love the outdoors and I've been reading a lot about Sheridan. I loved the downtown area, which I visited when I interviewed there in Aug. We look forward to having a great time and learning more about the culture.
